Hi. I have a dilemma. I am in the process of re-homing my cats as I am no longer capable of taking care of them because of medical reasons. I had up until recently three indoor only cats, the siblings Alpha & Omega (3 years old) and their step brother Hades (1.5 years old).
Hades has just been adopted and moved away, so I still have A&O left. The siblings doesn't seem to mind that Hades has left even though they where good friends with him. The siblings have never been apart, and have always been best friends. I think Alpha may be capable of living alone but I am not so sure about Omega as he is a bit clingy to both her and me.
They are not in any danger living with me. They have food and water, but I am not able to play with them anymore and I am not able to clean the litter box often enough. I can see that they are not entirely happy here. They still show me affection but I see their tails hanging low and swishing about all the time. My problem is that the market for both adult and kittens are overflowing. I have had an advert for them out for two months now and I have had a few responses where someone wants to adopt one or the other but not both. What is the right choice here? Keep them here, moderately unhappy but safe and with each other? Or accept separate adoptions and hope they will adapt?
I have nobody close to me that can take them even for a little while and shelters here do not accept cats that has a current home because there are too many. So re-homing to strangers is the only way.
